We have all sinned in condoning a civilization best characterized by the Hopi Indian word Koyaanisqatsi, meaning "crazy life, life in turmoil, life out of balance, life disintegrating, a state of life that calls for another way of living."

Note: The music played at the very beginning and very end of the movie (with the men chanting "Koyaanisqatsi") is very reminiscent of the instrumental, "Genesis Ch. 1 V. 32," by the Alan Parsons Project on their album, "I Robot."

Perhaps now is the time when such a proactive mode is both more possible than in earlier periods, and perhaps even necessary given humanity's increasingly "Koyaanisqatsi" Life out of balance behaviors?
